Turns out this is:
- Cookie driven. I prefer my privacy. Infinite redirects if
disabled.
- Javascript-link driven. Among the features either disabled or not
available on my browser(s) of choice.
- Starts off with a legal disclaimer. Why am I surprised.
By offering suggestions through this survey, you give Microsoft
full permission to use them freely. We can't guarantee we will
use your suggestions, but we will review them for use in future
products. If appropriate, we may explore your feedback further.
We will not provide compensation for your suggestions submitted
through this online survey, though we appreciate your feedback
and look forward to building better products with helpful
feedback such as yours.
- Appears to be of the form of "we're going to ping you with a
question per page on this survey so you've got no idea how long this
thing goes on". Sorry, I like to have an idea of what bloody
questions are going to be asked of me before I get into something.
...that's as far as I got with the damned thing. It's not an
interaction, it's a mindsuck.
If anyone cares to post the whole survey, I'd be interested.
Peace.
